Product Information

Full details

The Mitre Calcio 24 Football is an ideal choice for grassroots players, youth leagues, and recreational enthusiasts who need a reliable, durable ball for consistent training and match play. Its standout benefit is the combination of a soft-touch TPU outer and an EVA foam lining, which provides excellent responsiveness and a cushioned feel during ball control and shooting. The primary caveat for new users is that the ball arrives deflated, requiring the purchase of a separate pump and inflation needle before it can be used.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

Does the Mitre Calcio 24 come with a pump?

No, the ball is supplied deflated and does not include a pump or inflation needle.

Can I use this ball for professional matches?

This ball is designed for training and recreational matches; it does not feature professional-grade certification.

Is the ball machine washable?

No, you should only clean the ball using a damp cloth and mild soap if necessary. Submerging it in water can damage the internal bladder and lining.

How do I know the correct inflation pressure?

The recommended pressure is typically printed on the panel adjacent to the valve. Use a pressure gauge to ensure accuracy.

Is this ball suitable for indoor play?

While it can be used in indoor arenas with turf or grass-like flooring, it may be too bouncy for smooth hardcourt surfaces.

Troubleshooting

Ball loses air rapidly after inflation

Check the valve for debris or a faulty seal. Apply a small amount of valve oil or water to the needle before re-inserting to improve the seal.

Ball surface appears to be scuffing

Ensure the ball is not being used on concrete or rough tarmac surfaces, as it is specifically designed for grass and astroturf.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To prepare your ball for play, follow these steps:

  1. Obtain a standard ball pump equipped with a lubricated inflation needle.
  2. Insert the needle gently into the valve, ensuring it is positioned straight to avoid damaging the internal bladder.
  3. Inflate to the recommended pressure marked near the valve; avoid over-inflation to maintain the integrity of the seams.

For ongoing care, wipe the ball with a damp cloth after play to remove mud and grit, which can accelerate seam wear. Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent premature hardening of the TPU material.
